With reference to the written work of either Ruskin or Pugin, consider whether the Gothic Revival Style is imbued with moral qualities absent from the Classical language

Section 1

Preamble

Pugin is credited with two seminal works in architecture. These are True Principles of

Pointed and Christian Architecture (Pugin 2019) and Contrasts (Pugin and Pugin 2011) .

Section 1 undertakes a practical criticism of these works with close reference to their

strengths and limitations. In the 2nd section the analysis focuses on how these relate to

concrete examples of Neoclassical Palladian and Victorian Gothic architecture. Finally, in

Section 3 there is a brief personal opinion piece as to whether the Neo Gothic style imbues

moral values that are absent from Classical architecture.

True Principles

Limitations

Looking at True Principles it is a well organised piece of writing with the meat of the

argument occurring on the very first page. This side is by far the most useful in terms of

explaining a theoretical approach to architecture. If there is a limitation to True Principl e s ,

then it is by modern standards poorly referenced. He does analyse his own sketches and

drawings, but pays little attention to Ruskin who has similar ideas.

The two great rules for design are these: 1st, There should be no features about a building which are

not necessary for convenience, construction or propriety; 2nd That all ornament should consist of

enrichment of the essential structure of the building. P.1 (Pugin 2019)

The register and tone is fervently authoritarian, at first glance justified only by his own

deductions. Unlike Inigo Jones the founder of English Palladianism, he doesn’t parade out to

Italy with a firm plan of ideas he wants to research and practice:

Jones created a new synthesis animated by both literature and architecture,which

responded to antique and Renaissance prototypes. P.280 (Jordan 1991)

Pugin appears to have been determined to pursue his style of aesthetically pleasing

architecture through sketching on childhood holidays. P.28 (Hill 1999). His lack of systematic

approach proves mortally disappointing as he is infuriatingly subjective:

The ancient masons achieved great altitude and great extent with surprising economy of wall

and substance; the wonderful strength and solidity of their buildings as a result. P.2 (Pugin

2019)

On closer inspection however, this unreferenced observation encompasses a distinctly

antiquarian approach with True Principles and a more professional archaeological input inContrasts. This is primarily due to his qualification. He completed a paternal apprenticeship

rather than a sophisticated university education and secondly his opinions are his fathers

and are handed down via a family tradition. P.27 (Hill 1999)

Strengths

The Pointed Architecture book reinstates the principle of the traditional. It refutes dissent and

revolution and prefers stability and incremental change within an established movement or

style. It’s eclecticism, with Pugin praising the tradition of the ‘ancient masons’ in the above

citation. P.2 (Pugin 2019)

Although oversighted in Pugin’s architectural theory in this book, Catholic arts are often

religiously allegorical pertaining to the sensus spiritualis prominent in medieval textual

understanding. (“Catechism Of The Catholic Church – Sacred Scripture” 2021). The spiritual

senses manifest themselves in painting as well in The Great Morning by the German painter

Philipp Otto Runge in which one can decipher references to Christ, father, son &, holy ghost.

Source: (Runge 1809)At least in part then, a quintessentially Catholic beauty is unspoken or reflective, contained

within argument structure, coding, and the apparently unexplainable that seems beyond

comprehension at first, but it nevertheless exists within art, and the architecture of stone

buildings if we truly seek it out. This is what Pugin is saying and practising by trying to see

hidden stories behind the architecture himself in describing the ‘great altitude’ created with

‘surprising economy’

. P.2 (Pugin 2019)

Source: (“St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel London” 2021)

Pugin’s tastes are monumental; towering Neo Gothic buildings like the later George Gilbert

Scott’s Hotel at St Pancras 1873 (“St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel London” 2021) dominate

people with their sheer size, making one feel humble before God. Remembering the artistic

context of the early 19th century in which he was writing The British Bee Hive originally from

1840 (Cruikshank 1867) depicted English people as busy bees, England captured in a positive

tower of Babel with everyone working and speaking their language for the greater good;

individuals who all knew their place.Source: (Cruikshank 1867)God is great in Puginism; man is humble and insignificant. Pointed buildings that appear to

pray like clasped hands towards heaven such as in the Gothic nave of Lincoln Cathedral are

praiseworthy. Ornamented lavishly with flying buttresses to distribute the weight and are all

in keeping with the proportions and style of an ecclesiastical building, Pugin sees these as

embodying a sense of whole rather than a sum of the parts. P.5 ( Pugin 2019)

(“Lincoln Cathedral” 2021)

Pugin epitomises a wealthy man living a successful life of religious significance. Christian

morals manifest themselves in other areas of visual arts in the 19th Century. Pugin was just

one vital part of the imperial social discipline scene within Victorian art. Here are 2 examples

from visual art; George Cruickshank’s The Bottle series glorifies teetotalling; the moral

message behind it being if working class people drank they would succumb to an early death

through poverty (Cruickshank 1847). One negative side of Victorian moralism might be that

women were blamed for the behaviour of their children and downfall such as in Augustus

Egg’s Past and Present Series (Egg 1840) In Catholicism, there is an element of philanthropy

in employing quality craftsmanship as a means of social mobility for poorer men who utilise

traditional cathedral building skills to make money.

Joints should be neat when the same space in good old constructions would have been

occupied by five or six stones tailing into the wall, and lying in their natural led (fig. B) ; a

point which should be most strictly attended to. P.35 ( Pugin 2019)

There is emphasis on anonymity, of being in a large group in Catholicism. This is

empowering and liberating in a different way; by allowing modest people to flourish away

from charismatic leadership. (Renfrew and Bahn 1996) The sacred space of St Chad’s

Cathedral in Birmingham imbues religious ritual in Catholicism with so called bells and

smells and it contrasts with the Classical 17th Century courtroom like appearance of the

church we see in St Paul’s Covent Garden by Inigo Jones.One can imagine being asked pretty searching questions as to adhering to God’s laws in

here, as if on trial almost. Sources: (“Actors Church – St Paul’s Church, Covent Garden” 2021)

St Chads, by contrast, promotes engaging in routine and habitual actions to create a

trance-like status of divine awe in religious practice like; with it’s high ceiling, the gold

painted alter, and the Christian artifacts acquired from European churches.(“File:St Chad S Cathedral (89200557).Jpeg – Wikimedia Commons” 2021)Contrasts

Weaknesses

To say that Puginism is just and Protestantism is immoral just simply isn’t true though. The

original Cathoic church wasn’t the historical pretty picture of holiness that Pugin claims. For

example, philanthropy was competitive; people were forced to pay for a privileged place

within society otherwise they risked not going to heaven. (“Roman Catholic Church In 1500”

2021) This was a corrupt way of printing money for the Catholic church.

In addition, the Calvanistic line in defense of the faith was just plainly implausible at times;

take a look at this quote from the beginning of the original Faust Book translated by me from

Early Modern High German:

(“Dr Faustus Wolfenbüttel Manuscript 1587” 2021)

In order that raw and Godless Luther were not reflected in it, promoted by it, and would want to work from it under

the shadows of darkness. Then, one would prefer to grasp the evil, than the good, then the devil would see the

heart of that person and capture it in so far as he’d be trapped within himself as if married to eternal misery, then

the end finally comes when that person is snatched away from the first true denomination of God by another;

leaves it and negotiates how the Lord Christ spoke of science to Satan himself.

This is so carried away and ineffective. Sure, it contains neat rhetorical triplings, a holy trinity

of points, but the content of those sets of three points is farcical in implausibility, which

Christopher Marlowe seeks to mock in his Dr Faustus (Marlowe, Ormerod and Wortham 1989).

For example, the author suggests that Luther is a manifestation of the devil that has been

imprisoned in some kind of failed marriage with mankind from which he must rip himself free

in an act of suicide. In so doing, he liberates himself from life as a manifestation of a

‘scientific’ informed antichrist. This is a ludicrous hyperbole.

That’s why I think some pre-reformation logic and rhetoric of the Catholic church had gone

just about as far as it could have gone within that style and it needed reform and revolution

at that stage. In the same way music had to abandon its own tonality at the beginning of the

20th century. It is not true to say that it shouldn’t have been touched. (Schoenberg, Black and

Stein 1975)

Strengths

Pugin lacks detail in Pointed Architecture . Red lines of a truly succinct philosophical

argument for pro-catholic architecture along the lines of Aristotle’s immaculate theory of

leisure Ch.1.2 (Price 2008) So Contrasts was clearly a book with greater use of long quotation

amd this increases it’s academic significance. P.9 (Pugin and Pugin 2011) He has clearly been

converted from high Anglicanism to Catholic architecture P.1 (Hill 1999) a nd religion detailing

the injustices of the reformation and addressing his critics who say he lacks substance.

I found it perfectly right in the abstract fact that the excellence of art was only to be found in

catholicism but I did not draw a sufficient distinction between Catholicism and its own

venerable garb or as disguised in the modern externals of Pagan corruption P.15 (Pugin and

Pugin 2011)The bloodletting and the pillage of the Catholic church by Henry VIII is a hate of his. Pugin

condemns his divine right of kings to rule and to make love to his new friend Anne Bolyen as

a selfish aim for a barbaric revolution.

This arrogant and impious step drew forth the indignation of those who had the constancy

and firmness to prefer the interests of a religion to the will of a tyrant. P.21 (Pugin and Pugin

2011)

It was the power of the church that preserved the fabric of that early society against the rule

of the state. The Catholic church as one that stuck up for human rights as God’s witness.

The artistic treasures of the catholic era were deliberately destroyed along with those who

defended them and to Pugin this was a big deal and clearly the destruction of Catholic art

and burning of bridges to create that something new was immoral.

The suppression of the religious houses, and the spoliation and desecration of those

shrines….had raised doubts amongst men who were more excited than suppressed P. 25

(Pugin and Pugin 2011)

In Contrasts, he describes what these treasures mean to him and why saints were praised,

and why Henry the VIII and his family the Tudors and Stuarts were evil in their condemnation

of Catholicism.

Catholic architecture was : The architecture that emanated from the faith itself in the erection

of churches , instead of adopting a bastard imitation of Pagan edificis P.19 (Pugin and Pugin

2011).Section 2: Examples of Neo-Gothic and one Example of Neoclassical Palladian Architecture

Summary of Contrasts and Pointed Architecture

Pointed Architecture (Pugin 2019) No unessential additional features to the

essential construction of the building other

than what is functional (by implication I

suppose he means things like columns and

palladian makeovers of country houses)

No over ornamentation only that which is

essential for the enhancement of the

aesthetic beauty of a building

Pointed architecture is the most

aesthetically beautiful

Pointed architecture is the most naturally

Chirstian architecture

Contrasts (Pugin and Pugin 2011)

Loss of centre in architecture and society

which is loosely connected to the

reformation but also to other factors

A return to Catholic features in building will

facilitate healing old wounds

Medieval art and society was better than

industrial society of the 19th century, more

tactile, more caring, less about the

individual and the genius and more about

the group. This was facilitated by when he

practically defines it as pro-Christian

architecture or architecture that facilitated

Chirstian values of things such as

philanthropy.

The reformation was a big deal for society

and something he sees as a mistake eg.

because of the desecration of English

Renaissance art by the Puritans and during

the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry

VIIISt Chad’s Cathedral, Birmingham

Exterior design

Source: (“St Chad’s Cathedral, Birmingham” 2021)

Although the design of St Chad’s is intended to be a praiseworthy original English Catholic

cathedral, it is in fact related to the Roman Gothic style of Northern Germany possibly

Lübeck which Pugin visited shortly before it was constructed between 1839-1841. It is not of

Pugin’s preferred stone construction because the diocese couldn’t stretch that far financially,

so it was constructed of Warwickshire red brick. Use of brick served to save time in

completing the first post reformation Catholic Cathedral in the UK. (McKellar 2008)

Its entrance is as normal at the West End and was originally situated in an urban residential

area with a Bishops House. This was demolished in the 1960s to pave the way for the new

road construction. There is an ornamented doorway and above it rose windows, each in a

pattern with 7 four sided quatrefoil windows 6 in a ring around one in the centre contained

within a circular surround to give the impression of a petal. It wasn’t all finished by Augustus

Pugin. His eldest son completed the west tower and his grandson the lady chapel in the

1930s (McKellar 2008).

Source: (“St Chad’s Cathedral, Birmingham” 2021)

Augustus Pugin said of his Cathedral ‘I have adopted a foreign style of pointed architecture

as it is both cheap and effective and likewise because it is totally different from any

protestant erection’

. (“The Cathedral Church Of St Chad, Birmingham, By A. W. N. Pugin(Exterior)”

2021)

Bath stone is utilised for doorways and windows but brick bears the largest part of the

integral structure. St Pauls, though neoclassical, does also feature the twin Germanic towers

reminiscent of Lübeck cathedral on the West side, being rare examples of this style of

cathedral tower in England. (McKellar 2008)

The door hinges and metal work are reminiscent of the medieval originals at York minster

and Lichfield and are referenced in Pointed Architecture . P. 20 (Pugin 2019). St Chad’s has

a continuous, pitched, German style slate roof. (McKellar 2008)

Pugin was forced to sacrifice some of his principles of building such as exclusive use of

stonework in order to fit the Victorian brief which he was unhappy about. The German style

arcade is 75 ft high and employs pointed arches. He originally divided the nave with a rood

screen, and included a Choir Gallery. (McKellar 2008) St Chad’s is not typically Puginesque

as he later abandoned nearly all the Germanic features of his church in later buildings. The

construction is likeable and it’s decoration does make one awe at the power of God and

ready for some healing and ritualistic prayer. (McKellar 2008) Although Pugin claims this is not

Protestant architecture; as the construction of the German cathedrals pre-dates

protestantism this statement appears hypocritical as original English Gothic does too. Isuggest he’s referring to the added tower he despised at Ely P.10 (Pugin 2019) rather than

the spire he admires at Salisbury.

Interior Design

Source: (“St Chad’s Cathedral, Birmingham” 2021)Alter Pieces

Containing a reliquary with the remains of St Chad based on the original described by the

Venerable Bede this is one of Pugins own highly commendable works. It has angels on

either side which were typical of Catholic altar pieces from Northern Europe in the mid to late

Renaissance. It evokes a sense of just how rich and worthy the catholic Church was, how it

commanded the service of its ancient teutonic defenders who prayed at it’s temples and for

whom church was a part of everyday life in which rich and poor mingled. (McKellar 2008)

Christ on the Cross

Dismantled from the rood screen in 1967, The Christ on the Cross figure is of typical Belgian

late Renaissance origin. The figure has not been constructed as an original pastiche but

conversely the statue itself was purchased from Europe and combined with Pugin’s original

mock gothic cross depicting the four apostles. Repainted, and with the blood emanating from

his side, the ribs and even his veins are all part of the original wooden construction.

Displayed on the ceiling near the altar it is situated within relief of a gold painted ceiling. It is

stunningly beautiful and evokes a warm feeling of spirituality about the sacred space. Due to

its height you are reminded that there is something or someone greater than yourself to

respect and admire. It does embody a lot of the strengths of the Catholic revival depicted

above in the table about justice for the reformation and the restoration of public art. (Pugin

and Pugin 2011) It welcomes pilgrims at the centre of its being. Yet having been purchased,

not made new this is its weakness also. It isn’t an original composition but a sort of artistic

re-interpretation of an existing piece. At worst, it feels stolen from a lost place rather than

composed specifically for this purpose. (McKellar 2008)

Statue of the Virgin and Child

Source: (“St Chad’s Cathedral, Birmingham” 2021)

This 15th century piece is of Dutch origin. The blessed Virgin holds a manifestation of

humanity’s fall from the Garden of Eden, an apple in one hand, and a manikin of Christ in the

other. Again repainted more than once; these statues evoke a Catholic sense of Christ’s

house functioning as a house rather like your or mine containing significant amounts of art

and furniture especially when ceded by Pugin himself as a gift. The warm colours of this

artefact clearly show that it was one of Pugins own well loved pieces. (McKellar 2008)Holkham Hall, Norfolk

Holkham Hall on Norfolk Coast is a Classic example of Neo-Palladian architecture.

Neo-Palladian architecture is the first kind of Neoclassical architecture imported into the UK

from the grand tourists to Italy. English Neo-Palladianism was fathered by the joiner Inigo

Jones in the 17th century. He interested himself in the Neo-classical architecture of Italy at

the end of the Renaissance particularly the work of Palladio, who used classical orders of

columns, pediments and windows to create a quintessentially Italian neo-roman architecture.

Jones purchased many of the Palladio drawings and spoke to some of the late Palladio’s

disciples and friends. He came back to the UK and created the first example of

Neo-palladian architecture in the UK, the Queen Mother’s House at Greenwich. (Smith 1952)

A generation or two later Holkham Hall was constructed for Thomas Coke by Matthew

Brettingham who was the site architect with significant design input from William Kent and

Lord Burlington architect of the Royal Academy in London. The wholly symmetrical Villa

Rotunda is Palladio’s most famous building. Source: (“Villa Rotonda – Data, Photos & Plans –

Wikiarquitectura” 2021) My personal take on Holkham Hall is that the floor plan of this building

is a family of Villa Rotundas one big squarish, rectangular building in the centre and four

symmetrical box satellites each with an adjoining passage. Source: (“The Bones Of Holkham

Hall” 2021) Holkham Hall Floor plan So that it too is roughly symmetrical if flipped 180 degrees,except for the additional pediment at the front. The other four wings are perfect squares.

One feature of the Villa Rotunda is the large central atrium, now covered. This feature is

replaced at Holkham by a spectacular rectangular hall (A) and 2 asymmetrical courtyards on

either side of it. It’s deceptively rotunda-esque without actually being the villa rotunda

because it is slightly different at the front to the back. Source: (“Villa Capra \” 2021) Villa Rotunda.

The pediment and columns out the front support a grand view on the way in and conversely

a gallery to greet your visitors on coming down the drive. The rear contains a row of five

palatial Palladian windows to open up light to the living areas and provide stunning views of

the ground. The feel at the back is one of homeliness and informality. There is a Palladian

pediment, but no supporting columns and a plain entrance this time for the squire and his

guests showing it is his country home as well as a palace. Source: (“The Holkham Hall

Wedding // Rebecca + Henry | Luis Holden Photography / Norfolk Wedding Photographer” 2021)

Interior Architecture

Source: (Sampson 2021)“Temple Of Fortuna Virilis” (Temple Of Portunus) 2021

Source: (“6 Surprising Truths About The Pantheon In Rome” 2021)The interior design of the entrance hall is the most spectacular part of the palace. The

column styles are taken from the Temple of Fortuna Virilis in Rome ( “Temple Of Fortuna Virilis”

(Temple Of Portunus) 2021) which guests would be expected to recognise along with the

ceiling coffering from the Pantheon in Rome. (“6 Surprising Truths About The Pantheon In Rome”

2021). So the guest would be received and they’d have a little polite game of guessing the

artifact and how learned your grand tour was and how much of it you had taken in before

they were given dinner and shown to their room. The owners were prominent and elitist

pro-European Whigs.

Section 3: My Opinion and Conclusion on imbued moral qualities in Neo-Classicism vs

Gothic Architecture based on the above.

It’s less of a question as to whether something imbues morality in general; moreover, it

depends on what ideology you are adhering to. Classical architecture is supposed to imply a

resurgence of Pagan-Hellenistic or humanistic values in society, an ideology that had its own

set of morals, peace, security, sociological and philosophical sophistication and love of

Athenian society. (Price 2008) Others believed in strict religious adherence to rituals.

Classical and Gothic architecture stand for two very different moral approaches. Broadly

speaking Puginites are the architectural Pharisees and the Sadducees (“Pharisees,

Sadducees & Essenes” 2021) are the grand-touring elite Palladianists who were likely to have

been sexually immoral, openly promiscuous partiers. Thus, Classical architecture appealed

more to the morally liberal. Some people value honesty more in social morality terms than

Catholic hypocrisy about gay priests for example. Classical architecture incorporates space

that facilitates talking, socialising, and even making love like in a Roman forum or bath

house. Many people prefer these humanistic or hellenistic values. (“The Steamy Truth About

The Roman Bath” 2021)

As discussed above, if you are more spiritually moral, e.g. if you have had a fall or mental

imbalance at any stage in life then equally, calmness, spiritual healing, balance, and yin and

yang that ritual facilitating architecture such as Pugin’s implies would potentially imbue grater

significance and moral standards for you as a person. Indeed, it depends on one’s

independent moral compass as to which architectural style people find more imbued with

morality, and this can change over time with the ebb and flow of life.References
